Raising My Children With My Personal Spatial Ability

Chapter 1682: No Room to Maneuver

Glancing at the Purple-robed people, who were now few in number due to the giant python’s attack, it was time to seize this opportunity to eliminate them all.

“All guards, eliminate the Liushang Sect assassins with all your might,” he commanded.

“Yes!”

Upon receiving the order, the guards charged toward the group of Purple-robed people.

Before the Purple-robed person could even utter a retreat, a blade pierced through his chest.

He wanted to dodge, but having been struck by the giant python and severely internally injured, he truly couldn’t evade this time. He lifted his foot and kicked the person who had stabbed him away.

Little did he know, the guard held the long knife very tightly, and as he was kicked away, the knife was also pulled from the Purple-robed person’s body, causing a spurt of blood to gush forth instantly.

“Ugh.”

The Purple-robed person was startled for a moment, looking down at the wound in his chest.

“Sect Leader!”

The assassin beside him, upon seeing this scene, cried out in shock and hurried over to support him.

“Sect Leader, how are you? Healing Pills, you must take them quickly!” In a fluster, he pulled out a porcelain bottle from his bosom, poured out a medicinal pill, and brought it to the Purple-robed person’s lips.

The Purple-robed person tried to open his mouth, but it was too late; his legs gave out, and he knelt down.

Although the knife hadn’t hit the heart directly, when pulled out of his body, the blade had sliced through his heart; he could feel it.

Thus, he had indeed killed himself without a chance for reprieve.

“Retreat!”

In the end, he uttered just one word.

His death didn’t matter, but he could not let the Liushang Sect fade into oblivion.

The Liushang Sect was his life’s work, the accumulation of generations of Sect Leaders over many years—it could not simply cease to exist.

At this moment, he truly regretted his past actions. Had he known that cooperating with Xiang Qifeng would lead to the near destruction of the Liushang Sect, he would have never accepted Xiang Qifeng’s task to kill Xiang Qiyan.

Now, Xiang Qiyan was still very much alive, even if unconscious, but what about him?

He would die even before Xiang Qiyan, an outcome he had never anticipated, and was filled with inescapable regret.

“Sect Leader, Sect Leader!”

The assassin called out several times, but could no longer get a response from the Purple-robed person, only to watch helplessly as he closed his eyes and breathed his last.

Grief-stricken, the assassin closed his eyes briefly before opening them again and lifting the Purple-robed person onto his back.

“The Sect Leader has given the command, retreat!”

With that, he tried to flee.

However, their escape was futile, for not only were there the guards of Su Tang, but also a giant python.

The assassin carrying the corpse of the Purple-robed person passed by Gu Qingyu, who screamed in fear as she ran, feeling a large shadow looming over him. When he looked up to see what was ahead, he saw a gaping maw of bloodied fangs.

“Aah!”

With only enough time for a terrified shriek, the assassin and the corpse of the Purple-robed person were both swallowed by the giant python.

“Sect Leader!”

The nearby assassins witnessed this, powerless to intervene.

None among them could defeat the python; they would all avoid it if they could. Now, they could only obey the command of the already deceased assassin and retreat.

But how could they possibly escape?

Before long, the assassins each fell to the ground, turning into lifeless corpses.

With the Liushang Sect’s assassins gone, Zhan Beiye and his followers now had the chance to deal with the giant python. However, the python was not as easy to handle as the Liushang Sect had been, especially with Gu Qingyu present, who seemed determined to keep attracting the python’s attention.
